jamiemelati Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Be careful using these phantom? builds. I notice that they seem to all be the same size (1,065,296 or (1041 kB in explorer)Looking back I detected three different builds, 30039-Alpha, 30242-Alpha & 30246-Beta (might be more, but I don't have them).One hypothesis is that they grabbed an earlier build and are just changing its internal version data to test their Silent auto-updating etc.See Gugolplex Post #530 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 One hypothesis is that they grabbed an earlier build and are just changing its internal version data to test their Silent auto-updating etc. Build numbers are automatically updated/incremented by the CVS / compiler when the source code is built (=compiled) into an executable file.

Statistically suspicious.Not particularly "suspicious" for distrubuted systems, I don't imagine for one minute that there is only one, single point (node) in the versioning system that releases builds to the CDN, and with the frentic pace that Alpha and Beta builds are done it's not really surprising there are anomalies in the way they appear at the public end.And of course the only ones who actually notice this occuring, are the small percentage of users that are actively testing Alpha and Beta versions and builds so are checking on at least a daily basis for new builds. The overwhelming majority of uTorrent and BitTorrent users will not notice anything untoward because they will only be updating if and when their client informs them of a new version being available.

Simbiat Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 seems like an old bug with the client hanging on closure is back. I exit the client but it's still hanging for eternity in the processes, until I kill it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2039906 Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 - Change: Use pause icon in place of stop iconuses pause icon but functions as stop and has "Stop Torrent" as a tool tip. I dunno.. maybe be more consistent. might as well change the function of pause to be identical to current stop and call it pause and get rid of stop entirely.

teorouge Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Didn't see anything in any of the release notes, but remote access appears to be broken in build 30226.It just sits and says "Connecting..." then after a few minutes puts up an error that it is being blocked (worked fine in 3.3.2). Also, some of the error message contains Chinese characters?I've tried reinstalling from scratch just to verify. No change.Build 30255 still broke for me, anyone else? Windows Pro 8.1 here, if that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 - Change: Use pause icon in place of stop iconWill the icon on the "Inactive Category" also be changed to reflect the 'Paused' status?
